Miley Cyrus seems as inevitable as a government shutdown. She was roundly (and arguably unfairly) criticized for being a hot mess after her twerking performance on the MTV Video Awards, but since then her career has only heated up, with a new album “Bangerz,” a Rolling Stone cover, and a coming gig hosting and singing on “Saturday Night Live.” So what’s the deal with her? We decided to ask someone who knows. When Will.i.am stopped by the Journal to talk about his role in WSJ Startup of the Year, we asked him about working with Cyrus on her new music as well as some of his other business and innovative efforts. Watch the clips.
